I think it is 14 mins because: 3 Minutes for running first time (starting the WH and first execution) Leave for 15 minutes. WH will be iddle after 10 mins. ==> 10 + 3 New execuion = Minimal is 1 minute billed. so: 10+3+1 = 14

Why after the second run WH suspends after 1 min if autosuspend set to 10 min?

4th point in the question says the user suspended the Warehouse manually immediately after the second query is completed. if the user would have left the warehouse active then it would have been 24.

Selected Answer: C

First run: 3 minute query plus the default 10 minutes until the warehouse is suspended is 13 minutes. Second run: 10 second query (billed as 1 minute) and then immediate manual suspension is only still 1 minute. 13+1 = 14 minutes.

I couldn't understand why after the first query (3min) we have 10 minutes before WH is suspended, then after the second query (10sec) we don't have 10 minutes before WH is suspended?
